Nearly two decades after their first official show, Pearl Jam is still around, still rocking, and still making great albums. Backspacer ($19/Amazon, $10/iTunes LP) eschews the band's sometimes moody lyrics for a more upbeat feel, with (mostly) similarly upbeat songs that bring together some elements of pop, punk, and new wave for a sound that's new, yet unmistakably Pearl Jam. Standout Tracks: "Gonna Meet My Friend," "Force of Nature," "Just Breathe."
